C   E
   G                     Am
My name is inmate number 30268
      C              G
and I decided not to stay
  E                         D
I doubt they’ll kick up any dust or roadblocks
       C   B/C        Am
for an old crook like me
      G                Am
I was in the path of a tornado
       C                 G
I just didn’t expect the spinning
      E                  D
would last as long as it has you know,
     C    B/C   Am           D
so I keep repeating.  I just keep repeating

G    F#/D            E      C  B/C              Am
      There’s always hope.  No good thing ever dies.

and I’m writing for my life
                C           B/C            Am
It’s a terrible thing to be afraid all the time
         G                          Am
When you reach the point of a death wish.
    C               G
The feeling that anything
    E            D
has got to be better than this,
          C    B/C  Am          D
then just keep repeating.  just go on repeating
